About

korTTY is a JavaFX SSH client with tabbed terminals, SFTP, snippets, session journals, automation, and optional AI-assisted workflows. The Flatpak package can start host shells through flatpak-spawn and access host files selected by the user.

Permissions

3 permissions weaken the sandbox. Flatsonar asks before installing.

    --filesystem=host
  • sandbox escape: can run commands on the host via flatpak-spawn
    --talk-name=org.freedesktop.Flatpak
  • X11 display: X11 lets apps read input and windows of other apps
    --socket=x11
  • inter-process communication (needed for X11)
    --share=ipc
  • network
    --share=network
  • audio
    --socket=pulseaudio
  • GPU acceleration
    --device=dri
